1. Rohit

2. Jaiswal

3. Gill

4. Kohli

5. Shreyas

6. Rahul / Better keeper batsman 

7. Jadeja

8. Ashwin

9. Kuldeep Yadav

10. Bumrah

11. Prasidh .. must develop bench strength

Siraj is pretty good in Indian conditions, also Shami is incredible. We can’t risk a home test series for developing bench strength, especially when series is on line.

 

Umesh is done and dusted now, Shami -Siraj should start, Bumrah and prasidh to come in later

Bumrah has to play. He is our only pacer who can prise out wickets against the run of play.

Enough of Rohit,Kohli,Bumrah,Shami. Gill needs to be dropped.

 

Back young guys. At worst they'll perform similar to these guys.

 

 

 

That is your assumption that young guys will perform similar., why would you drop Rohit in India and Gill is the future, why would you drop him.

Gill should not be an automatic choice in the playing11.  Poor against decent spin, poor against decent seam...Poor against everything.   LOL.  Any top order batter who averages less than 35 in tests after having played 30+ tests should be asked to prove himself in domestics first.

When Rahul can captain India with his stinking avg of 33 after 50 tests.Gill has done not bad at all.He will be just fine.

 

Gill has played many tests on bunsen Burners and bowlers friendly wickets.How did Jaiswal do in SA again.

 

He is the future captain of the side,He should play all formats.

KL is not playing as a specialist batter.  He is WK as well.   Gill brings nothing to the table except the batting where he sucks.

He played more tests as specialist batter and stunk than Gill.Rahul is never going to get better, he has been one inning wonder all thru his career.

 

Rahul should be thanking heavens and his god father Dravid for even being in any Indian team.No one got as many chances as he did even after proving that he stinks under pressure.

 

Gill like any young player will have ups and downs.For the moment he is just fine, if he does not pickup, pressure will be on him.

Rahul was dropped and post his return, he has three hundreds in England and South Africa.

 

Nothing wrong in thinking about dropping Gill also. Keep him on his toes until he improves and become a better test batsman.

The squad has been announced. 

 

I'd go

 

Jaiswal

Rohit

Gill

Kohli 

Iyer

WK (whoever that is)

Axar

Jadeja

Ashwin

Bumrah

Siraj

I'd replace Axar with Kuldeep. Axar and Jadeja are like twins. Sure it takes away some batting, but with batting all the way to Ashwin and Jadeja at 7 & 8, not sure we need Axar. Kuldeep brings a bit more variety, perhaps.

I wouldn't do that. Axar is a terrific batsman on home pitches. If anything, I'll replace one of Ash/Jadeja with Kuldeep if necessary. Also Ashwin's batting hasn't been all that in the last 3 years.

 

But Id rather crush England with extreme batting depth.

 

Like in 2016, when the trio of Jadeja, Jayant Yadav and Ashwin combined to give us massive depth. 

 

Axar is currently the best batter of the lot and I want the best batter to play at #7.

Could live with that, too. Kuldeep, Axar and Ashwin/Jadeja.
